14.3 Frame Lines

To aid in framing, the camera offers to display frame lines overlaid over the live image. Frame lines can

be considered electronic versions of ground glass markings in film cameras. You can configure which

frame line the camera should show and how it should be displayed (color and opacity). You can also

configure up to two user rectangles which allow you to mark a rectangular area on the image, e.g. for

marking an area that you need to keep clear during shooting for later VFX insertion. Custom frame lines

can be created using the online

Frame Line & Lens Illumination Tool

. A standard set of frame lines for

different aspect ratios is provided in the camera, the availability depends on the selected sensor mode.

Setting the Frame Line

► Select

MENU > Monitoring > Frame Lines > Frame Line

.

► Select a frame line from the list or

add

a custom frame line from an inserted USB medium or the

defaults list.

Info:

Frame lines can be only loaded if their aspect ratio matches the aspect ratio of the set sensor

mode.
